John 7:46

English Standard Version 2016

The officers answered, “No one ever spoke like this man!”

See the chapter Copy

And all spoke well of him and marveled at the gracious words that were coming from his mouth. And they said, “Is not this Joseph’s son?”

And here he is, speaking openly, and they say nothing to him! Can it be that the authorities really know that this is the Christ?

and they were astonished at his teaching, for his word possessed authority.

The Pharisees heard the crowd muttering these things about him, and the chief priests and Pharisees sent officers to arrest him.
